Album Notes and Credits

Notes & Personnel Info
Contains 3 untitled tracks and the hidden titled track "Today Your Love, Tomorrow The World" following "Daytime Dilemma (Dangers Of Love)."
Compilation producers: Johnny Ramone, Rob Zombie.
Includes a booklet with color photos and liner notes by Stephen King.
"The Return Of Jackie And Judy" was nominated for the 2004 Grammy Award for Best Male Rock Vocal Performance.
Finally arriving two years after Joey Ramone's death, WE'RE A HAPPY FAMILY enlists some of rock's biggest names to participate in giving this Forest Hills outfit its due. Not surprisingly, out of this impressive roll call of artists, the California contingent of third-generation punks come the closest to tapping into the amphetamine tempo of the original songs. Green Day rips through "Outsider," Rancid spits out a killer version of "Sheena Is A Punk Rocker," and Offspring's Dexter Holland is practically a vocal doppelganger of Joey on "I Wanna Be Sedated."
Other cuts by bigger names take a different creative path. Marilyn Manson pours ethereal, goth-soaked nuance into "The KKK Took My Baby Away," Bono tosses out a well-mannered vocal on "Beat On The Brat," and Tom Waits pulls out a T.Rex-meets-Leadbelly "Return of Jackie & Judie." Kiss uses horns and screaming guitar to make "Do You Remember Rock 'N' Roll Radio" an infectious stomper, the Red Hot Chili Peppers make "Havana Affair" resonate with melodic rhythm guitar, and Eddie Vedder and Zeke rage through "I Believe In Miracles." Excellent liner notes by Stephen King make WE'RE A HAPPY FAMILY a keeper. Gabba Gabba Hey!
